ESP32 Bit Pirate is open-source firmware that turns your device into a multi-protocol development and analysis tool, inspired by the legendary Bus Pirate.

It supports sniffing, sending, scripting, and interacting with various digital protocols (I2C, UART, 1-Wire, SPI, etc.) via a serial terminal or web-based CLI. It also communicates with radio protocols like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Sub-GHz and RFID.

Turn a $5 ESP32-S3 into a browser-based hardware workbench.The Bit Pirate firmware is complemented by scripting, hardware dock, extension, adapters, browser tools, documentation and practical embedded workflows to enable comprehensive hardware debugging and development with serial interfaces or Wi-Fi connectivity.
